Yarn Art Alpine Alpaca (150g/5,28oz/120m/131.23 yds) in the color beige 430 x 13 skeins

Super bulky substitute yarn suggestion: Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick and Quick (170g/106yds/97m).

Total yardage for blanket = 1,706yds.

If you knit with Jumbo weight yarn you only need to knit with one strand.

Cable needle - 20mm (US 36) or 25mm (US 50).
